The Strategy of Satan: How to Detect and Defeat Him

Great book! There is no fluff here, just the scriptures, a relevant explanation, and an easy format. A quick read as well, so if you need either a reference, or want to do more in-depth study this book is a great tool.

Dr. Warren Wiersbe is a very credible, thought provoking writer of Biblical content and always gives me knowledge and motivational thoughts and concepts. Even though this book was written in the past, his treatment of the subject stands true to the Bible and he gives his readers a plan to realize and confront Satan and his never ending wiles in this world.

This book is the BEST book I have ever read on spiritual warfare (SW). That is, it is the best book I've read the covers the "practicalities" of the process (and processes) of SW. That said, the primary function of SW is to KNOW your enemy (or as the old saying goes "information is POWER"). And this book give you A LOT of information and/or many of the facets of the powerful being (and his dominion) known as Satan (or the Devil). Warren Wiersbe does not write like other authors on the topic of SW, where he doesn't regurgitate the same information over-and-over again. Wiersbe gets Straight-to-the-point!!, and doesn't fool around with extra-biblical conjecture or fantasy as many other "Christian" (so-called) writers today. So I would HIGHLY recommend this book. It is NOT the Holy Bible, but it is indeed an very nice supplement to the concepts about SW, Satan and his evil army. The only difficult part is DOING/Following the advice given from/in the book (as it is always hard to put to "practice" the things of the spirit - that is why you cannot do them unless [or until] you pray and call for help from the Holy Spirit [God] Himself - take it for what its worth). Lastly, I must warn anyone who does begin to read this book, that you WILL begin to experience resistance and attacks from the one in which this book is written. So I am almost certain you will find out first hand who Satan is as he will send all types of distractions, trials, etc., in order for you not to completely grasp or understand what is written. So WATCH OUT! PS - one other book you may want to consider, besides this one is "This Present Darkness", by Frank Peretti. This book by Peretti is "fiction" but it puts the whole SW, Satan/Demons and the "war" into an interesting perspective. Many people will consider even this book (by Wiersbe) as fiction. But that is only if they are not a believer of God, which even scripture notes, it is "foolishness" (spiritual things, and the Gospel) to those who are perishing (1Cor 1:18). Anyway, GOOD Book!!

I bought this as a new Christian many years ago. I thought it was so good that I bought several copies, one I donated to my church library where it was being well read. I stuggled with it at first because my belief in Satan was not well formed or based on Scripture. I picked it up again and it let me know how Satan works and was a great start to my new Christian life. Diane

Don't enter the battle blindfolded! You have to know and understand the enemy in order to prevail. Easy reading laced with verses to back up the author's strategy. This book gives proactive Biblical insights to resist and overcome Satan's attack. He that is in us is greater than he that is in the world!
